The family of John Studdard who served in Operation Iraqi Freedom and suffered from posttraumatic stress disorder honored him.
Studdard took his own life, but before left a detailed note describing how loved ones need to be aware of getting veterans the help they need.
Veteran Doug "Tiger" Odom says, "More needs to be done to make people aware of it, particularly families of loved ones who come back from war and they're not the same people."
Odom says exterior wounds not the only ones that can leave lasting affects on veterans.
